THE raisin industry in California is but
in its infancy; and yet the New York
Mail and Express informs us that the
California raisin has reached such per-
lection that it is now able to compete sue
ceSsfully in the Eastern markets with the
finest Spanish fruit. One large dealer in
forms the Express that this seasons Cali
fornia crop is superior to the import from
Spain. This testimony is no stronger,
however, than the friends of the raisin in
dustrG In this State have contended would
be given when the California product was
once properly packed. With such success
attendant upon the immaturity of the in
dustry, what may We not expect from it
few seasons hence?

DIR. CLAUS SRPBCKELs, the sugar man

project is about to be put into operation.
He claims that heretofore we have not
had the proper machinery, and now that it
has been secured by him, we can engage in
Sugar-beet craving to practically unlim-
tied extent with perfect assurance Of fair
profit as result. The experiments made
this season, with this years growth of
beets from seed brought from abroad, he
reports to be very satisfactory. Evaporat-
ing apparatu, is to be set up in several
parts Of the State, where the beets can be
brought and sold for crushing and press
ing. Probably in no section can the
sugar beet be grown to better advantage
than in the central counties. Parts of
Sacramento county are especially favorable
to the growth of the vegetable One of
the evaporating establishments ought to be
located in Sacramento, because of its CEN
trality and the extensive area contiguous
to the city that can produce the beet to
the best advantage. Since Mr. Spreckels
is to invest 100000 in these evaporating
plants, it would be advisable to invite his
attention to Sacramento as a proper and
economic point for locating one of the
branch works.

Advice to mothers.-Mrs. Winslow's
SOOTHING SYRUP should always be used when
children are cutting teeth. 1t relieves the little
sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep
by relieving the child from pain, and the little
cherub awakes as bright as q button" II is
very pleasant to taste. 1t soothes the child,
softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind,
regulates the bowels, and is the best known
remedy for diarrh1a, whether arising from teeth
ing or other causes Twenty-Five cents bottle.

The best medical writer's claim that the
successful remedy for nasal catarrh must be
non-irriIating, easy of application, and one that
will by its own action reach all the remote sores
and liberated surfaces. The history of tue e.-
forts to treat catarrh during the past few years
obliges us to ADMIT that only Que remedy has
completely met these conditions, and that is
EL1iS CREAM BALM J his safe and pleasant
remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing else
has ever done, and both physicians and patients
freely concede this fact. The more distressing

Burned to Death.

New ORLEANS, September 16.-Early
this morning an explosion occurred in
the grocery store of Dominick -.
Messina, at the corner of Enghien and
Dauphin Streets, and moment lat r
the entire building was on fire and all
escape from the upper stories here
Messina's family resided, was cut off.
The fire must have been burning for
some lime before the explC sion, whiC b
was doubtless caused by the ignition OF
powder, which Messina kept for sale.
When the fremen reached the scene
the voices of the family could be heard,
mingled with the roaring and cracking
of the flames, crying for help. Every
effort of the fremen to rescue the IN
fortunate failed, and the entire family,
consisting of Messina, his wife and four
little children burned to death.

The Brooklyn Eagle says at frat the
watch was about the size Of dessert
plate. It had weights, and was used a
pocket clock" The earliest known
use Of the modern name occurs in the
record Of 1862, which mentions that Ed.
ward vi, had zone lorum or witch Of
iron gilt, with two plummets Of load. +"
The first watch may readily be supposed
to be Of rude execution. The first great
improvement--the substitution Of sprinps
for weights in 1850. The earliest
springs were not coiled, but only straight
pieces Of steel. Early watches had only
one hand, and being wound up twice !
day, they could only be expected 10 keep
the time nearer than fifteen or twenty
minutes in twelve hours. The dials
were Of silver and brass; the cases had no
crystals, but opened at the back and
front, and were four or Ave inches in di.
ameter. A plain watch cost more than
81, 500. and after one was ordered, il
took year to make it.
